Ah right. I hardly ever venture out that side.

Hinuera, on the way to the Kaimai's from Cambridge. Right before the railway crossing as you can see. It looked so familiar as I'd been out that way a few times. I think it was destiny that I got this tag haha.

Oh well, all the local coppers are probably drinking undercover in the local pubs anyway so ya might be OK.

Got no grandpa duties today so I might head off over there via an assortment of back roads.

Okey Dokey - here we go.

OLD TAG: A hobbit hole masquerading as an information centre. Broadway, Matamata.
NEW TAG: A boring subdivision sign. BUT. It lies at the beginning of the ride through "Tight-arsed bastard" Valley Road. Which is only about five minutes each way but well worth the trip.

Great day to ride Morrinsville - Walton Road.

Legally of course...

Although the local Pukeko are thick as fucking bricks. Came round a corner, one is standing in the middle of the road. Brake off some speed, move hard left to miss the thing and what does it do? Tries to run in front of the bike instead of the other way. Dumbarse beast. Somehow it eluded the wheels of death...

Today was probably the only chance I'll have to get out this week so I had to go for it.

I couldn't get back far enough onto the road to get the yellow line in the shot - too much traffic. But I am on the same line. See ya in jail.

Long time no tag!

Some nice roads around the new tag that I've not known of until today. Should need no hints.

Old tag wasn't too hard to find. Geez it was a cold ride. A light frost this morning, then a blanket of cloud kept the sun out and the cold in. I couldn't get warm.

New tag, Kihikihi domain.

Have you got yourself a new machine? Would you like to tell us about it.

No Jim, I haven't. It belongs to a neighbour who is having a new garage built. So the bike has been housed in my garage while the building is being done. She is happy to see the bike getting used. It is actually a damn comfortable bike to ride. It will go back to its real home in a week or two. Has made me realise just how much I've missed a proper motorbike.
